But that isn't much different from a case when I install any package with rich dependencies, say, gnome-session and after removing the package there will be dozens of packages left I didn't want. Actually, the loop may cause that I won't remove the game, because I forgot I've installed it and it doesn't show up as a leaf. Until yum or rpm is able to track packages installed only to satisfy dependencies, this will always be a problem. Why make the game data a special case? -- Miroslav Lichvar -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
